Jim Bowie Days Association Jim Bowie Days Annual Celebration and UPRA Rodeo
www.jimbowiedays.com

Since 1967, Jim Bowie Days has been Bowie, Texas’s signature celebration of western heritage and community pride. What began as a coffee-shop idea has grown into a week-long festival featuring a PRCA rodeo, parade, queen contests, live entertainment, tournaments, vendors, and family-friendly events. Powered by volunteers and tradition, it’s one of North Texas’s premier hometown gatherings.

For 60 years, Jim Bowie Days has been about more than rodeos, parades, and events. It's about the memories made with family and friends, and passing those traditions on to the next generation.

From grandparents who attended decades ago to children experiencing it for the first time, Jim Bowie Days continues to bring our community together year after year.

In past years, the rodeo started at 7:30 PM. For 2026, we've adjusted the start time to 8:00 PM to allow the sun to get a little lower and the evening temperatures to cool down.

It's only a 30-minute change, but we believe it will create a more comfortable experience for our fans, contestants, volunteers, and livestock during the Texas summer.

Before the bucking chutes open and the rodeo action begins, golfers from across the area will gather to kick off the 60th Anniversary of Jim Bowie Days at the JBD Golf Tournament.

Whether you're competing for the top spot or just looking for a great day on the course with friends, this tournament is a great way to start a week of Jim Bowie Days tradition.

Pictured is Andy Nored at the Bowie Rodeo Arena around 1966.

Andy was one of the early members who helped establish the Jim Bowie Saddle Club and the Jim Bowie Days Rodeo. He served as president for several years and played an important role in improving the rodeo grounds and helping build the foundation for what Jim Bowie Days would become.

Like so many of the founding members, Andy believed that a rodeo and community celebration could bring people together, support local businesses, and create something future generations could be proud of.

As we celebrate the 60th Anniversary of Jim Bowie Days in 2026, it's worth remembering the volunteers, visionaries, and community leaders who invested their time and effort to create a tradition that is still thriving today.

We believe Andy and the other founders would be proud to see Jim Bowie Days continuing to bring entertainment, community spirit, and economic impact to Bowie six decades later.

Thank you to those who built it. And thank you to those who continue to carry it forward.
